MULTIPLE CHOICE fg
1. To survive, microbial inhabitants have learned to adapt by varying all of the following, except
fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg
a. growth rate. fg
b. growth in all atmospheric conditions. fg fg fg fg
c. growth at particular temperatures. fg fg fg
d. bacterial shape. fg
ANSWER: D fg
The chapter begins by discussing the way microbial inhabitants have had to evolve to
fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg
survivein many different niches and habitats. It discusses slow growers, rapid growers, and
fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg fg
replication with scarce or abundant nutrients, under different atmospheric conditions,
